Document background
The 60 Day Rent Increase Notice is a mandatory legal document required under Irish residential tenancy law when a landlord wishes to increase the rent of a residential property. This notice must be served at least 60 days before the new rent takes effect and can only be issued once in any 12-month period. The document must comply with the Residential Tenancies Act 2004 (as amended) and include specific information such as the current rent, proposed new rent, and effective date. If the property is located in a Rent Pressure Zone (RPZ), additional calculations must be included to demonstrate compliance with maximum allowable increases. The notice serves as a formal communication tool between landlords and tenants and must be in writing to be legally valid.
